AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

RuntimeWire reports that Alibaba is testing an unnamed Qwen-family model called Qoduck inside its Qoder coding tool, which Qoder's docs call a stealth model. A Nov 7 offer gives individual users limited free daily use; Alibaba has not announced the model itself. Why it matters: A new Qwen coding model may be close...

Developers who use Qoder could soon get access to a new Qwen coding model, and the report suggests it may be close to an official release. Watch for an official Alibaba announcement that names the model and sets out its availability and terms. Until then, the details rest on this one report and have not been independently confirmed.
